vIEW OF THE FORTY WEST PIAZZA AT nIGHT

Welcome to the new Cairo neighbourhood with a vibrant social scene, amazing luxury apartments and bustling open-air spaces. It’s a place designed for Egypt’s pleasant climate and gregarious lifestyle, opening up new possibilities for indoor-outdoor living in Cairo. The gardens, terraces and public areas are as meticulously designed and well appointed as the interiors of each apartment.

This is a place that fully embodies the aspirations of modern Egyptians, who can live, work and socialise here, all in the company of like-minded people. It’s the first development at Westown, the new city centre being created by SODIC and Solidere International. And it will be one of Westown’s finest landmarks—a place with urban amenities and residential features that make life exhilarating, relaxing and complete.

This is where it all comes together. This is Forty West.

Forty West is a place inspired by the easy living of old Mediterranean cities like barcelona, beirut and Rome. Where people’s homes spill out into terraces, roof gardens and courtyards and where creative architecture makes convivial indoor-outdoor living enjoyable all year-round.

Forty West combines these Mediterranean charms with a truly modern design aesthetic and cutting edge technology. It’s stunning, international and sleek. Inside and out, Forty West incorporates the best of master-planning, design, materials and craftsmanship. It takes the idea of urban comfort to a whole new level.

The Forty West Piazza brings the best of international dining, art and design together in one extraordinary outdoor space. This is the social heart of Forty West. A place that will be full of life from the first sip of a cappuccino in the morning to the last sip of a cocktail at night.

You will always find something to do here: stop by the art gallery or sculpture garden to see great artworks; browse the boutiques for eclectic finds and designer fashion; take the kids to a mesmerising performance in the outdoor theatrical space; feast with friends and family in a great restaurant or spend a lazy afternoon chatting with friends over coffee or an ice cream.

There is something here for every lifestyle, every occasion and nearly every taste. We are hand picking all of the restaurants, cafés and boutiques to make sure each of them is the kind of amazing neighbourhood place you’ll want to come to again and again. It’s all part of what makes Forty West an Egyptian destination that is truly one of a kind.

APARTMEnTS bY MACHADO AnD SILvETTI

Argentinean-born Rodolfo Machado and Jorge Silvetti are among the world’s most respected architects. Rodolfo is a distinguished professor of architecture at Harvard and a sought-after lecturer around the world. Jorge is often asked to officiate at prestigious competitions, including architecture’s highest honour, the Pritzker Architectural Prize. Together and individually, Machado and Silvetti have won many awards, and their writings and drawings have appeared in many exhibitions, museums and books.

Their boston-based firm has designed the heralded expansion of the Getty Museum in California and a new downtown square combining the ancient and modern in beirut. Their quietly sensational private residences often feature in international architecture journals and glossy magazines.

Each Machado and Silvetti project is different, focusing on whatever is unique and important about the setting, situation and place. This is why they were our first choice to be the architects for Forty West.

InTERIORS bY EKLEGO

Eklego are one of the hottest young design teams working in Cairo at the moment. They’re known for bringing eclectic materials, textures and patterns together into a unique and striking whole.

You can see their work in the SODIC Sales Centre, which has a modern look that is both elegant and inviting. Eklego’s residential interiors have made a splash in local and regional design press because their work is at the vanguard of an emerging contemporary Egyptian style. And they’ve applied this same visionary approach to the styles they’ve created for Forty West.

Page 23: Forty West Factual Brochure

Everyone’s style is different. We think everyone’s home should effortlessly reflect this individuality with features that match your lifestyle and approach to life. That’s why we asked our design partner Eklego to create three distinct contemporary interior styles for the apartments at Forty West.

Each style has a palette of fittings that Eklego have sourced from their network of fine artisans and world-class suppliers around the world. And it will all be tailored to the size, layout and location of your new apartment. Eklego will take care of everything on your behalf. All you have to do is decide which style you like best: urban Chic, natural Zen or Modern Islamic.
